AVERTISSEMENT : Le chatbot Graph n'est pas programmé pour fournir des réponses explicites ou catégoriques à vos questions. Il transforme plutôt vos questions en demandes API qui sont distribuées aux différents services informatiques officiellement administrés par l'EPFL. Son but est uniquement de collecter et de recommander des références pertinentes à des contenus que vous pouvez explorer pour vous aider à répondre à vos questions.
The behaviour of brittle matrix fibre reinforced-composites is dependent of the properties of its constituents (fibre, matrix and fibre-matrix interface) and is affected by the mechanical and environmental loads. The fracture of a unidirectional composite ...
A new formulation for predicting an asymmetric, piecewise non-linear constant life diagram (CLD) is introduced in this paper. The development of the new model is based on the representation of the fatigue data on the stress ratio (R)-stress amplitude (σa) ...
The purpose of this thesis is to characterize internal strains in polymeric materials due to consolidation. In view of this, optical Fiber Bragg Grating sensors are an excellent non-destructive tool for internal strain characterization and damage detection ...
Fibres fracture gradually during the fatigue cycling of continuous alumina fibre reinforced aluminium. The number of fibre breaks increases linearly with the logarithmic cycle number, depends on the maximum stress and the stress ratio, and agrees with publ ...
The importance of Fibre Reinforced Polymers (FRPs) as a material used for civil engineering purposes has grown in the last decade. Especially the introduction of pultrusion at an industrial level as a way to produce big batches of FRP made it possible to o ...
Thin brittle films on polymer substrates are finding increasing use as gas barriers for example in the medical and food packaging industries and also for the next generation of ultra-light displays based on flexible polymer substrates. In order to determin ...
From airplanes to sailboats to bridges, composite materials have become a significant part of our everyday structures. With increasing demand, these materials are pushed to their limits to improve structural efficiency. As a consequence, research and devel ...
Nanostencil lithography is considered a promising emerging nanopatterning method due to its simple process flow, low cost, little restriction on materials, and high compatibility with organic or biological surfaces. The principle of shadow mask deposition ...
Polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) is used in many applications requiring good optical properties, resistance to ageing and resistance to UV irradiation, in spite of its relatively poor mechanical response to impact loading. In order to extend the range of appl ...
Quasi-static axial tension experiments were performed in a laboratory environment on epoxy bonded, balanced double-lap and single-lap joints from pultruded GFRP flat sections. Full-scale specimens were used to avoid size effects. Parameters investigated we ...
